Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate
catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to provide the appropriate care and services for
one (1) of two (2) sampled residents (Resident 1) who was admitted with indwelling catheter (a tube that
helps drain urine from the bladder [organ inside the body that stores urine] through a drainage tube
[indwelling catheter tube] into a drainage collection bag) by failing to monitor Resident 1 for signs and
symptoms of urinary tract infection (UTI, an infection in the bladder/urinary tract) in accordance with the
care plan and facility policy on catheter care.
This deficient practice had the potential to result in the delay of treatment and care in the event Resident 1
develops a catheter associated urinary tract infection (germs enter the urinary tract through the urinary
catheter and cause infection) which could result in harm, hospitalization, and death.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 1's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 1 was
originally admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses which included urine retention (a condition in
which you cannot empty all the urine from your bladder), hemiplegia (paralysis of one side of the body) and
hemiparesis (weakness on one side of the body) on the right side, and muscle weakness.
During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS, resident assessment tool), dated 1/31/2025, the
MDS indicated Resident 1 had intact cognitive skills (ability to think, understand, and reason) for daily
decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 1 dependent (helper does all of the effort, resident does
none of the effort to complete the activity) in toileting hygiene, lower body dressing, and putting on/ taking
off footwear. The MDS also indicated Resident 1 needed substantial/ maximal assistance (helper does
more than half the effort. helper lifts, holds trunk or limbs, and provides more than half the effort) in shower/
bathe self, upper body dressing, roll left and right, sit to lying, lying to sitting on side of the bed and tub/
shower transfer. The MDS indicated Resident 1 was admitted to the facility with Indwelling catheter.
During a review of Resident 1's the Physician's Order (PO), dated 1/28/2025, the PO indicated indwelling
catheter: Foley catheter (type of urinary indwelling catheter) Size: 16 French unit (Fr, a unit of measurement
for the catheter's diameter) Balloon Size: 10 cubic centimeters (cc- unit of measurement). Change for
blockage leaking, pulled out, excessive sedimentation. Change catheter drainage bag as needed and with
every change of indwelling catheter, as needed for urinary retention.
During a review of Resident 1's Care Plan (CP) for Indwelling Catheter due to urinary retention and

During a concurrent interview and record review on 4/22/2025 at 10:58AM with Director of Staff
Development (DSD), the Nurses' Progress Notes dated 4/1/2025 to 4/22/2025 were reviewed. DSD stated,
she did not document anything in Resident 1's progress notes on 4/7/2025 because there was nothing
wrong with Resident 1's indwelling catheter. DSD stated she did not document anything because Resident
1's urine was clear and had no sediments. DSD added Resident 1 did not complain of any pain during her
shift. DSD also stated, she should have documented that Resident's indwelling catheter was monitored.
During an interview on 4/22/2025 at 11:18 AM with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN 1), LVN 1 stated, I did
not look if his (Resident 1) indwelling catheter tubing had sediments. LVN 1 stated Resident 1 had bladder
discomfort sometimes.
During an interview on 4/22/2025 at 11:33AM with LVN 2, LVN 2 stated the licensed nurse needs to monitor
signs and symptoms of UTI for a resident with a foley catheter. LVN 2 stated the licensed nurse needs to
document in the nurses' notes whether the resident has signs and symptoms of UTI or not. LVN stated if it
was not documented, that means the resident was not monitored for it.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 4/22/2025 at 1:33PM with the DON, the Change of
Condition (COC) Evaluation, dated 4/1/2025, was reviewed. COC Evaluation indicated Resident 1 had
sediments in his urine. The DON stated the licensed staff should have documentation for Resident 1's urine
clarity for the sediments in his urine for 72 hours every shift.
